THE CASTINE COLLISION
Wholly Unavoidable on the Part OF the
Steamer.

PORTLAND, Sept. 2.
Referring to the sinking of the sloop yacht
Mike at Castine, by the steamer City of
Richmond, Thursday afternoon, Captain
Dennison in an interview, Friday afternoon,
said: "The collision was wholly unavoida-

them to keep free, then when collision
seemed inevitable, was stopped and reversed.
Everything was done that could possibly be
done by the steamers officials to avoid the
catastrophe. The two occupants of the boat
who were rescued, acknowledge that the
blame was altogether their own and that the
steamer was in no way responsible"
Young Shepherd is said to have been a
good swimmer, and his death is accounted
for only on supposition that he was struck
by the paddle wheel and killed or rendered
insensible before the yacht went down. Mr..
Goodenow, who was navigating the boat,
cannot swim. He managed to keep adoat by
treading under the water aud padding with
his hands until the steamers boats picked
him up. When rescued he was nearly ex.
hausted. The other persons on the boa. kept
afoat by assistance of piece of plank, until
taken aboard by the rescuers.

The Interstate Commerce Commission
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.
1t is estimated that the question of the
legality of the appointment of the interstate
commerce commission will be raised on the
part of the railroad companies. The ground
assigned for questioning the validity of the
appointments is that the offices created by the
interstate commerce law being new one, do
not come under the head of vacancies hap
pening during the recess of the Senate, and
that therefore the President had no legal
right to make the appointments after the ad-
iournment of the Senate.

WARRINGTON, February 24.-Sens-
tor Whitthorne believes IN a Jay bird
navy. "Did you ever zee q lot OF j4y
birds after hawk2" he sad, talking
of his new naval bill. Two or three
of those active little birds will drive a
hawk as far as they like. They dart
in and cut, and worry him unul he,
although twenty times their size, is
glad to get away from them. Well,
that's about my idea of navy. We
may want few hawks and eagles, but
what We want NEST OF, in numbt re, is
jay birds"
sand is this class Of naval jay birds
that you propose to supply by your
bill Offering 6Ounties for the cons rue
ton of a merchant marine that can be
used in time Of war;
That's 1t exactly. That is precisely
my pisn. l believe that by giving
bouuties to persons CONT utting and
maintaining vessels that can be made
useful for carrying troops and NUM-
tions in time OF war, and by doing the
work OF cruisers also, worrying the
big ships, we can have a naval con-
tingent a, email cost, but one that will
be valuable both in times Of war and
peace"
You propose by this plan TO en-
courage men 10 enter upoa the sea

precisely so. We have very few

we would have very few men with
